Hi,

I understand the Kaiju can be used to power headphones - if so, what are the most suitable headphones for the Kaiju? Which impedance range for example?

I also have a paramount 2A3; is it the same answer for the paramount?

Thanks.

The Kaiju is not intended to operate as a headphone amp, but it's sufficiently quiet with the DC filament upgrade and the output transformers wired for 2 or 4 ohms.

You can try any headphone above 2 ohm impedance with the Kaiju. This answer is about the same for the Paramount.
